RAFFLE BASKET DONATION
The baskets are on display at lunchtime the week of the rodeo, and students can purchase raffle tickets at lunch for $1.00 each. Winners will be drawn at the end of the rodeo on February 28. Your child does not need to be present to win! Items for the raffle baskets are all donated by you, our Dragon families.
The Amazon wish lists are organized by themes and are suggestions! If you choose to purchase an item from a wish list, the item will ship directly to the raffle committee. If you prefer to purchase something at a store, just drop it off at the front office. (Walmart has a FANTASTIC clearance aisle! They also have clearance toys back in the toy section.) Please feel free to send in monetary donations or gift cards in lieu of items. Cash donations and gift cards are greatly appreciated and help add needed items to raffle baskets.
Donating to the raffle is completely voluntary.
